The act of washing your hands only when there are other people there to judge your personal hygiene, for instance in a public washroom.
"Don't shake John's hand. I hear he's a public washer."
OR
"I was in a hurry to leave the office but my boss was in the urinal next to me so I felt like I had to do a public wash before leaving."
Those nasty mystery pubes that you can find on public toilet seats.

Publication Period
The time on Urban Dictionary between when a post gets approved and it updated on the site.
After a word is approved, it takes some time for the site to update to include the word. In the 'in between period' which is known as the 'Publication Period' this is the point where it has been accepted, but when going to the link it says 'Sorry, we couldn't find: {word}'
"My post got approved, how long is the Publication Period?"
"My post just got approved and is in the Publication Period"
I saw some other definitions about LD and policy, and they were old, so I made this so a newer debater can understand. I will assume you understand the rules and various jargon used obsessively throughout most of the debate community. Public forum, compared to other debate events, while not necessarily the best, should still be highly considered. Looking at other debate forms such at LD, policy, and congress, PF is the most fun. PF is like the "Goldilocks" event. LD is too boring (who would want to judge two roman-nosed high schoolers in suits talking about the values in life for and hour), policy requires too much time researching random and stupid arguments (penguins lead to nuclear war) or perfecting speaking speed, and congress is vague, lazy, difficult to become good at, and rounds are loud and you barely get to speak. Public forum also looks good on applications, teaches you to debate lay a lot better (which definitely helps you a lot more in later parts of your life), and is probably the most "easiest to learn, hardest to master" type of debate. Give it a try.
"I'll never quit public forum. Screw policy."
"Ugh...this congress round will never end."
"Who tf cares about principles and values in life?"
1. The illusion of which is given to people on a cell phone or blue tooth in public and within earshot of others. These people believe that others cannot hear about their husband's rectal exam or their mothers attempt at making toast in the microwave.
2. What is compromised when Party A takes video/pictures of Party B in public with or without them knowing, with the intent of putting them on YouTube or myspace.
1. "I don't care about her son's first poop on the toilet, I just want to know if she want lettuce, tomato, or onion on her sub! Put down the phone and listen to me goddammit!"
2. Eligh: "What are you doing!? Put that camera away! This is an invasion of public privacy!
Felix: "No! I'm going to put you and that gold spandex bodysuit on the internet!"

When someone you're interested in makes it clear that they are with someone else through affectionate public gestures.
I was flirting with him until he gave the girl who walked up to us public acknowledgement, and then I backed off.
